Helmet Great - Bluetooth Needs Work

The actual Smith Variant Brim Helmet was great, comfortable, lightweight, adjustable, plenty of vents, and stylin.' The Plantronics Bluetooth Audio earphones need some serious work. When I paired the device with my bluetooth enabled phone, only one speaker worked and it sounded horrible. I tried it with another bluetooth device - same thing. When I plugged the earphones into the phone with a wire - both speakers worked, but the sound quality was less than mediocre. My advice, buy the helmet for 150 bucks and wait for Plantronics to get their $&*! together.
